Information

Host template for FreeBSD server. Host template making graphs and collecting values gained from ucd/generic snmp and own shell scripts. Part of monitored values is same as periodic.conf provides. Works with pfSense (http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=45979)

This host template contains templates for:

  • gmirror (total/active disk) and raid (camcontrol, mptutil)
  • apcups (line V, load, Battery charge, timeleft)
  • processes and states
  • mail/client queue for sendmail and postfix
  • smartmontools - disks and errors
  • NTP (root dispersion, jitter, offset)
  • installed ports (total/old/vulnerable)
  • users (total/logged in/without password)
  • denied packet

Second part of template contains generic snmp and ucd templates for disk, cpu, load, interface statistics and …

Advantages:

  • Data are collected only via snmp
  • Lower load against collecting data via ssh command
  • It is possible to add another values
  • You can use data from shell script or a binary
  • In combination with threshold = very useful alerting tool for everything (raid volume fail, …)
  • all important values from different sources (raid, smartmontools, apcupsd) are stored in one place
